Derived |
the type of the actual SVD decomposition |
SVD decomposition consists in decomposing any n-by-p matrix A as a product
\[ A = U S V^* \]
where U is a n-by-n unitary, V is a p-by-p unitary, and S is a n-by-p real positive matrix which is zero outside of its main diagonal; the diagonal entries of S are known as the singular values of A and the columns of U and V are known as the left and right singular vectors of A respectively.
Singular values are always sorted in decreasing order.
You can ask for only thin U or V to be computed, meaning the following. In case of a rectangular n-by-p matrix, letting m be the smaller value among n and p, there are only m singular vectors; the remaining columns of U and V do not correspond to actual singular vectors. Asking for thin U or V means asking for only their m first columns to be formed. So U is then a n-by-m matrix, and V is then a p-by-m matrix. Notice that thin U and V are all you need for (least squares) solving.
The status of the computation can be retrived using the info() method. Unless info() returns Success, the results should be not considered well defined.
If the input matrix has inf or nan coefficients, the result of the computation is undefined, and info() will return InvalidInput, but the computation is guaranteed to terminate in finite (and reasonable) time.

template<typename Derived >
- Returns
- the U matrix.
For the SVD decomposition of a n-by-p matrix, letting m be the minimum of n and p, the U matrix is n-by-n if you asked for ComputeFullU , and is n-by-m if you asked for ComputeThinU .
The m first columns of U are the left singular vectors of the matrix being decomposed.
This method asserts that you asked for U to be computed.
template<typename Derived >
- Returns
- the V matrix.
For the SVD decomposition of a n-by-p matrix, letting m be the minimum of n and p, the V matrix is p-by-p if you asked for ComputeFullV , and is p-by-m if you asked for ComputeThinV .
The m first columns of V are the right singular vectors of the matrix being decomposed.
This method asserts that you asked for V to be computed.

Derived& Eigen::SVDBase< Derived >::setThreshold | ( | const RealScalar & | threshold |
) | | | inline |
Allows to prescribe a threshold to be used by certain methods, such as rank() and solve(), which need to determine when singular values are to be considered nonzero. This is not used for the SVD decomposition itself.
When it needs to get the threshold value, Eigen calls threshold(). The default is NumTraits<Scalar>::epsilon()
- Parameters
-
threshold |
The new value to use as the threshold. |
A singular value will be considered nonzero if its value is strictly greater than \( \vert singular value \vert \leqslant threshold \times \vert max singular value \vert \).
If you want to come back to the default behavior, call setThreshold(Default_t)
template<typename Derived >
Allows to come back to the default behavior, letting Eigen use its default formula for determining the threshold.
You should pass the special object Eigen::Default as parameter here.
svd.setThreshold(Eigen::Default);
See the documentation of setThreshold(const RealScalar&).
